The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
From a first look it looks pretty much that is fully working
What does not
There are graphic corruptions when u move and also no hair . everyone is bald .... :p well The game itself in the past had such a bug :P :)
Low fps too with the High setting . Had to set it to low to be playable which is quite enough for me :)
What was not tested
Everything else i just got too excited it even STARTED!!!! and didn't crash
Additional Comments
I got it a Bronze rating due to graphic anomalies which were a few imo and low frame rate but still a great step ahead in wine development.
It was tested on a macbook pro 15" (June 09) with snow leopard
Wine (-devel 1.30) built with macports as universal
Since there hasn't been enough testing I suggest you for the time being to do these steps in order to produce results.
1) Go with a terminal to the destination where Age of Conan has been installed . (Update: probably not necessary in 1.31)
eg. cd "/home/maniac/.wine/ drive_c/Program Files/Funcom/Age of Conan/" and so on
2) wine ConanPatcher.exe
If you want to skip the Launcher, check Katsu Akimoto 's post below in the comments... of course dont forget u have to update the client :P ; Not Tested with wine
If you get errors about DirectX when the patcher starts , download and install it
Update Note: You HAVE to use the directx dlls to native after last tests. Note sure which dll as i used the winetricks script to set all the dlls to native (winetricks d3dx9)
Same procedure with my desktop Linux PC. I got a new prefix tried it without any modification and it couldn't find DirectX in the system. So i i did $ winetricks directx then $ winetricks d3dx9.
Waiting for new test data by users in order to find bugs.
Future test includes installing the game and running it , whereas as now running it from the windows partition

As soon as i m done with work i ll have more time to more more extensive tests and fill in bugs . Many seem to have an issue with graphicals probs and performance
Also because i noticed the slow framerate too, try using shaders 2.0 or 2.x
How to will be updated in the next 2-3 weeks :p
i m a slow poke xD :p

How to skip the launcher
by Katsu Akimoto on Thursday October 15th 2009, 21:39
Hey, I'm not on Ubuntu (Or any GNU/Linux) at the moment, but I noticed that old comments are gone and a previously answered question is here. To skip the launcher, you go to %AoC Install Dir%/Funcom/Age of Conan/LocalConfig.xml
FIND: (I can't have the < and > symbols in here)
HttpPatchFolder AoCLiveUS /HttpPatchFolder
and REMOVE it.
The launcher will no longer be executed.
Patcher Drawing seems to be resolved
by Hallvar Helle on Monday August 24th 2009, 7:00
As of Wine 1.1.25 the patcher seems to have ben drawing fin and still is with Wine 1.1.28 so that issue seems to be resolved. Now hitting the play button Still dosnt seems to work.
I belive theres a way by deliting som lines in a config file witch prevents the patcher from starting when you run AgeOfConan.exe but i'v ben unable to find this info again.
